HOME RULE.

Mil. CHURCHILL'S SCHEME

(By Electric Telegraph.—Copyright

(United Press Association.) London, September 19. Sir E. Carson, speaking at Enniskihoj)., reiterated the Ulstermen's determination to employ force, if necessary, to resist a policy wiiich the electors of the United kingdom had not sanctioned. Lord Hugh Cecil stated that Mr. Churchill saw any number of Home Rule Parliaments just as an intemperate person sometimes saw snakes.

INSEPARABLE TO IMPERIALISM

Lord Dunraven, writing to Mr.' William O'Brien, .says that Home Pule is inseparably connected with Imperialism. Some provision is necessary for autonomy in the domestic affairs of the Empire's component parts; therefore, it is incredible that Ireland can be omitted. He advises dropping the Post Office and Customs from the Bill, as they will only be fruitful of friction. The Bill should provide for proportional representation in order to safeguard the minority. He condemns the control of Nationalists by a secret society, whose authority is ex orcised without a semblance of tolerance or fair play, and expresses the fear that the Irish Parliament will be dominated by it. He adds, that the most substantial objections of tiie opponents of Home Rule will not be dispelled until this incubus is removed.
